Man Thought To Be Dead From Ebola Awakens Just Before Being Taken To Burial

Amid the deadliest Ebola outbreak in history, it’s easier to get help if you are dead than if you are alive.
My producer and I were driving back from an assignment in Monrovia, where we filmed this morning’s “Good Morning America” segment, when we saw a burial team working along the roadway surrounded by crowds of angry locals.
A community leader said they had been trying to get help for the dead man for days, but no ambulance ever came. When the man died, a burial team came in an hour.
We watched as the burial team suited up and approached the body lying against a wall. They sprayed it down with bleach and moved it to a black, plastic sheet and began to wrap it up.
“We couldn’t get him help when he was alive,” a community leader told me. “They only come when you die.”
Just then, the dead man moved his arm — just a little, but clearly a sign of life.
“He’s alive,” someone yelled.
The burial team unwrapped him and put him back on the ground. The man was alive but looked like he would only last a few more hours.
About ten minutes later, an ambulance pulled up and a separate team of health workers loaded him into the back.
This ebola thing is really out of control.
